Gophers sophomore forward Josh Ola-Joseph plans to enter the NCAA transfer portal and his pending exit would open up a scholarship on the U roster.
The Brooklyn Park, Minn., native is the first player from the 2023-24 roster to share intentions to leave, which he did with On3 on Wednesday.
Ola-Joseph started 43 games for Minnesota since his freshman year, but he saw his playing time dry up in February and March. The athletic small forward averaged 7.5 points, 2.2 rebounds in 29 games last season.
With Ola-Joseph’s exit, the U has one vacant scholarship spot going into next year.
